Is there any chance you're mistaking a "colon" for a full stop (period)?

- ModernMech 8y agoMy precedence order is (!|.|?) > : > ; > ,
- whatshisface 8y agoI pause longer for colons than for periods. Colons are less common and often join what are really two sentences, meaning something like "read this sentence in the context of what was said in the first."
- vorg 8y agoIt took a few moments to realize you mean: To me, exclamation mark, full stop and question mark are of equal precedence; they are higher than colon, which is higher than semi-colon, and that is higher than comma.
